    Steeltoe What's my move?

    Strictly from rumor and given the number of teams currently I wouldn't be surprised with a brand new standalone team of his own. Dorna would surely welcome that.

    Interesting. But, it seems like all comes back to the factories and the level of support and equipment they provide to teams - be it factory or satellite. I still think a factory Yamaha bike w/full factory support is where he needs to be for best success given the options out there.

    caferace No.

    Elias looked really aggressive for a while. Stoner may have really screwed the pooch with his tire choice; we shall see.

    Edit: Dammit Elias crashed out hard trying to pass Pedrobot.

    And then Lorenzo crashes out of 1st in Goddards. Both crashes came from touching the white line. Shyte

    Nice fight between RdP and Pedrobot for 3rd, really aggressive stuff from RdP

    Stoner and Hayden lapped already, after having chosen wets at the start. Weird stuff

    Nice to see Dovizioso latched onto Rossi's wheel. Would be cool to see him grab a win

    And Rossi crashes in the Fogarty esses, Dovizioso way out in the lead, but RdP closing a second a lap. Exciting stuff

    Edit. Edwards closing on RdP very fast.

    f'n dp... if he would have worked w/CE they could have gotten up front

    Yep, but can't fault him for going for it.

    Damn... i was rooting for one of the satellite riders. Mostly CE but still hell of a race. Rossi missed an opportunity to take a huge leade over Lorenzo. He was lucky to pick up some points. Great race!

    Great win for Dovizioso. He deserved it.
